  5. Hotel Carlton

    Nestled between Nob Hill and The Tenderloin is one of the most comfortable hotels in San Francisco and one of the greenest. We stayed in the boutique location in June 2008 and were drawn in by the Polynesian modern decor and the giant red fluorescent sign hovering over Sutter Street like a beacon.

    The lobby is classic--ultra comfy couches, Arco lights for reading, and free wine tasting at 5pm every day.

  6. New Year Fire Work in front of the Bay Bridge

  7. Golden Gate Bridge

    The Golden Gate Bridge is a world-famous suspension bridge completed in 1937. It is part of US 101, and it connects the City of San Francisco to Marin County and the rest of the northern California coast.

    The natural air conditioning system that San Francisco's fog provides engulfs the Golden Gate bridge most afternoons, providing very dramatic temperature changes, and leaving the tourists running to the shops to buy more clothes.

Rome, Caput mundi ("capital of the world"), la Città Eterna ("the Eternal City"), Limen Apostolorum ("threshold of the Apostles"), la città dei sette colli ("the city of the seven hills") or simply l'Urbe ("the City"), is thoroughly modern and cosmopolitan.

  9. Legion Of Honor

    A great place to veiw art in San Fransisco.

  10. The Ferry Building

    Originally built in 1898, this San Francisco landmark at the foot of Market Street was one of the busiest transit terminals in the world prior to the construction of the Bay and Golden Gate Bridges during the 1930s. Ferry traffic declined dramatically thereafter, and from the 1950s until the mid-1990s, the Ferry Building was hidden behind an ugly elevated freeway.
